  • <> CRONOLOGIA DE LOS SATÉLITES ARTIFICIALES DE LA
    1 SATELITES ARTIFICIALES. Capítulo 5º Subcap. 10 <> CRONOLOGIA DE LOS SATÉLITES ARTIFICIALES DE LA TIERRA. Esta es una relación cronológica de todos los lanzamientos de satélites artificiales de nuestro planeta, con independencia de su éxito o fracaso, tanto en el disparo como en órbita. Significa pues que muchos de ellos no han alcanzado el espacio y fueron destruidos. Se señala en primer lugar (a la izquierda) su nombre, seguido de la fecha del lanzamiento, el país al que pertenece el satélite (que puede ser otro distinto al que lo lanza) y el tipo de satélite; este último aspecto podría no corresponderse en exactitud dado que algunos son de finalidad múltiple. En los lanzamientos múltiples, cada satélite figura separado (salvo en los casos de fracaso, en que no llegan a separarse) pero naturalmente en la misma fecha y juntos. NO ESTÁN incluidos los llevados en vuelos tripulados, si bien se citan en el programa de satélites correspondiente y en el capítulo de “Cronología general de lanzamientos”. .SATÉLITE Fecha País Tipo SPUTNIK F1 15.05.1957 URSS Experimental o tecnológico SPUTNIK F2 21.08.1957 URSS Experimental o tecnológico SPUTNIK 01 04.10.1957 URSS Experimental o tecnológico SPUTNIK 02 03.11.1957 URSS Científico VANGUARD-1A 06.12.1957 USA Experimental o tecnológico EXPLORER 01 31.01.1958 USA Científico VANGUARD-1B 05.02.1958 USA Experimental o tecnológico EXPLORER 02 05.03.1958 USA Científico VANGUARD-1 17.03.1958 USA Experimental o tecnológico EXPLORER 03 26.03.1958 USA Científico SPUTNIK D1 27.04.1958 URSS Geodésico VANGUARD-2A

  • NASA Advisory Council Recommendation Lowering The
    NASA Advisory Council Recommendation Lowering the Cost of Expendable Launch Services 2011-02-06 (SC-Ol) Recommendation: We recommend that NASA work aggressively to lower the cost ofexpendable launch services through whatever means possible. This may include block buys or other innovative approaches in the NASA Launch Services II (NLS II) contract and pursuing alternate sources such as new commercial entries and international collaborations. Major Reasons for the Recommendation: The new NLS II contract greatly increases the cost of launch services, resulting in loss ofthe number of flight missions that the NASA Science Mission Directorate (SMD) can afford. Consequences of No Action on the Recommendation: The SMD launch rate will be reduced and there will be reductions in the science content ofthose missions that are launched. NASA Response: NASA concurs; however, the nature ofthe challenges that affects our ability to gain access to space differs across Expendable Launch Vehicle (ELV) size classes. For the small launch vehicles that support the small payload class, the prices from the original NLS contract (AKA: NLS I) to the new NLS II contract have remained essentially the same. (See Attachment 1.) The larger concern for this payload class is the lack ofrobust launch demand. Several launch service providers have offered launch vehicles for this class (Le., Orbital Sciences Corporation's (OSC) Pegasus and Taurus, SpaceX's Falcon 1I1e, and Lockheed!ATK's Athena lc), but the market has not developed in a way to provide a manifest where multiple commercial flights can be manifested and flown each year. As evidence, NASA has averaged less than one small launch vehicle flight a year since 1998.

  • Space Debries 2016
    1 PREFACE Funda mental ecology is abranch of science aimed at developing mathematical models that could forecast the impact of technogeneous process on the natural environment.the present edition illustrates the methodes and models of fundamental ecology takeing the outer space contamination problem as an example . Since the first sputnik was launched on 4octomber 1957 and the space era begun mankind was enthusiastic about putting satellite into orbit ,of the wonderful opppurtunities given by the space achievements foe telecommunications,navigations,Earth observations ,weather forecasts.microgravity science and technology,etc. nobody gave thought to a possible negative impact on the space environment,Now it is high time we step aside and look around. Space activity of mankind generated great deal of orbital debries ,i.e. manmade objects ane their fragments launched into space ,inactive nowadays and not serving any useful purpose. Those objects ,ranging from micron up to decimeters in size,traveling at orbital velocities,remaining in orbot at many years and numbering billions fromed a new media named space debries and become a serious hazard of space flights.collision with metallic particles of debries with 1 centimeter is energeitically equvivalent to a collision with car moving at a speed of 100 km per hour. Thus this media where in the space satellites operate nowadays should be taken into account ,and its impact on the durability on space missions should be evaluated as it will be affect the reliability of technical systems.That turns out to be of fabulous significance foe upward schemes surrounding constellations of law earth orbiting satellites as a space segment .
